Mysensors configuration cannot get it to work (ver 0.66 / 0.67)

1

Hello,
I have issues to get Mysensor working, is there any one of you that can see what I made wrong?

I decided to upgrade from 0.53.1 but failed so due to python upgrading
so I made a new 0.66.0 install and later upgraded to 0.67.0 but on both of the later installs I cannot get Mysensors running.
I do have a WiFi mysensors ver 2.0 gateway running, it currently works with the old HA installation as well as a domoticz installation.

I can ping the Mysensors gateway from HA 0.67.0 so it is reachble

I disconnected the old installation to test if the gateway could not support multiple session, but got same issue

my configuration.yaml looks like this:

mysensors:
gateways:
- device: ‘192.168.80.204’

persistence_file: ‘/config/mysensors1.pickle’

tcp_port: 5003

optimistic: false

persistence: true

retain: true

version: 2.0

commented are default so removed during testing.

the errors I get is:

My config for comparizon. I’m runnin the dev branch ethernet gateway from mysensors.

mysensors:
  gateways:
    - device: '127.0.0.1'
      persistence_file: '/home/homeassistant/.homeassistant/mysensors.json'
      tcp_port: 5003
  optimistic: false
  persistence: true
  version: '2.0'

I stayed at the HA version 0.65.6 as something was causin newer version to crash every now and then.

Thank you taikapanu,
I changed version: 2.0 to version: ‘2.0’
but get the same result

Did you try my ip? It points to device itself. I’m not sure if you need to make some rules etc. with yours…
You said you made a new (hassbian) intallation? Did you enable SPI? Can you run the mysensors gateway and the only problem is ha accessing it?

taikapanu,
No my mysensors gateway is external accessable via WiFi so I use the Correct IP adress, it works with the old HA installation as well as with domoticz.
So it is only the new hassbian installation that does not work

There might be something wrong with your persistence pickle file, looking at the last error in your log. I’d try moving that file to a backup place and then restart so that home assistant creates a new file. I also recommend using a json persistence file instead of pickle so that you can inspect the file easily.

Thank You MartinHjelmare,
that is correct, I removed the pickle file, and also removed the pointer to it in config.yaml, and after a restart the first sensor showed up(energy monitor) the others I needed to restart to get the to present themselves.
next step will be to reenter the pointer to the json file and have it be created.

Thank you very much for your support.
